Digital transformation offer unpresented opportunities for manufacturing and organizations with operational or production environments to advance their production, efficiency, and value while remaining viable in a highly competitive marketplace. To survive the market and technological changes companies are facing, executives and front-line leaders must recognize the impact on people and processes, which in turn drives business and organizational success. Believe it or not, the difference between viability and irrelevancy isn’t just the technology, but rather how well the people and organization are supported in the transition, implementation, and use of those technologies.
